Unihertz Titan 2 brings modern power to classic BlackBerry-style design

Much QWERTY, very Android: Despite being discontinued five years ago, the BlackBerry design is still popular. Many people want a modern phone with a physical keyboard – there's just something appealing about a tactile interface that a touchscreen can't match.

AirTag 2 rumor highlights what Android’s trackers could do better

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Apple’s AirTag 2 may offer both low and very low battery alerts. Most Android trackers still rely on a single vague low-battery warning. The AirTag 2 is expected to launch in the fall, likely alongside the next iPhone. Bluetooth trackers are supposed to give you peace of mind, but there’s always the risk that they’ll silently die on you when you need them most. That’s why one rumored battery management upgrade to Apple’s upcoming AirTag 2 could be a s

Interstellar Flight: Perspectives and Patience

Interstellar Flight: Perspectives and Patience This morning’s post grows out of listening to John Coltrane’s album Sun Ship earlier in the week. If you’re new to jazz, Sun Ship is not where you want to begin, as Coltrane was already veering in a deeply avant garde direction when he recorded it in 1965. But over the years it has held a fascination for me. Critic Edward Mendelowitz called it “a riveting glimpse of a band traveling at warp speed, alternating shards of chaos and beauty, the white h

Three axial flux motors and 850 kW fast charging? Meet the GT XX.

AI Agents Are Getting Better at Writing Code—and Hacking It as Well

The latest artificial intelligence models are not only remarkably good at software engineering—new research shows they are getting ever-better at finding bugs in software, too.

Bill Gates-backed Airloom begins building its first power plant

Wind power has run into some headwinds, and not the kind that spin its turbines. Recently, President Trump has decided to wage war against the technology, an unwelcome bit of friction that coincides with rising costs in recent years. Onshore wind power went for $61 per megawatt-hour last year, according to Lazard, bucking a decade-long downward trend. “We have a lot of headwinds,” acknowledges Neal Rickner, CEO of wind startup Airloom Energy. But he also argues that his company, which takes a

Majority of US teachers now use AI tools, saving an average of 5.9 hours each week

In brief: Artificial intelligence is taking over the classroom, and it's playing both sides of the ball.
